Opposition to the landmark health care overhaul declined over the past month, to 35 percent from 41 percent, according to the latest results of a tracking poll, reported Thursday.
Fifty percent of the public held a favorable view of the law, up slightly from 48 percent a month ago, while 14 percent expressed no opinion about the measure, according to the poll by the Kaiser Family Foundation.

I don't see how someone can defraud a capitalist society except by thievery from merchants, not the government. When we are defrauded now, it's our 'social' programs. And, it's accomplished by more evil people I suspect, some of which are even physicians.
Oh, and the taxing authority is probably cheated.
BTW, my friend also mention with joy and pride that he'll be on our Medicare program in 'two years time.'. He has afterall paid into our system and his birthrite grants him access to England. I'd be willing to guess that this occurs more than we can begin to fathom.
Does he ever get stopped and have his papers checked?

Sorry, but I am still pissed off that you find nothing wrong with what your "friend" is doing and see it as a problem of society and not him being an opportunistic weasel.
Social programs don't defraud the government/taxpayers, PEOPLE defraud the government/taxpayers by using social programs meant to help those in need.
Your "friend" is taking money from all of our pockets.

Congress has been defrauding the taxpayers for decades. Why shouldn't her friend get in on the action? It's an everyone for themselves kind of game. If you don't play it, you're the one left holding the bag of debt.

Which is why we are all in the current cluster - instead of people stepping up and saying it ISN'T okay and needs to be reformed we have people saying "Oh well, there are bottomless coffers, I should get in on the action too."
It adds up and we all pay for it.

A 50% approval is nothing to brag about since 50% of the population won't be paying for their "free" healthcare. Is this really newsworthy?

I'll give you his number and Y'all can bat this around. Other than entering the country and marrying to secure a green card because he wanted a better way of life, he has not defrauded this country. He pays taxes and all foreign nationals living, working and paying into the US system becomes a beneficiary. Who said I didn't find something wrong with any if not all of his actions as well as his family?
